ORDER Status Conference set for 7/27/2017 11:00 AM in Courtroom C, 15th Floor, San Francisco.The court previously approved the unopposed notice plan that the plaintiffs proposed. (See ECF Nos. 109, 111.) The amended certificate of service shows a service dates of June 8 and June 12, 2017, which means that the 21 days for objections ran on July 3, 2017. (SeeECF No. 113.) The court received no objections.The next step is the parties' stipulated dismissal, filed at ECF No. 110. The court previously set a status date on July 20, 2017, at 11 a.m., to avoid losing track of the case. The parties filed no status update, which is fine, but now the court has a scheduling conflict and continues the status hearing to July 27, 2017, at 11 a.m. The court asks for a short update by July 20, 2017, about any procedural next steps for the final fairness determination. The court appreciates that the motion for preliminary approval sets out sufficiently the legal landscape of the parties' contemplated dismissal (given the jurisdictional issue), and that it may be that the parties assumed that the court can now approve the amended stipulated dismissal at ECF No. 110. But given that the parties previously amended their stipulated dismissal at ECF No. 109-1 and replaced it with ECF No. 110, and given that in ECF No. 109, the parties said that they only "tentatively agreed on a form of Stipulation of Dismissal With Prejudice" (referring to the earlier version of the dismissal at ECF No. 109-1), the court asks for the update, including the parties' views on whether the court can now enter the stipulated dismissal at ECF No. 110.

Given the overall timing, the court vacates the hearing on 6/22/2017 and calendars a status hearing on 7/20/2017 at 11 a.m.

Set/Reset Hearing Further Case Management Conference set for 12/22/2016 11:00 AM in Courtroom C, 15th Floor, San Francisco. The court understands that the plaintiffs and the foreign defendants are conducting jurisdictional discovery that will be completed by 12/12/2016. The court sets a CMC for 12/22/2016 at 11 a.m. and asks for an update by 12/15/2016 about the parties' next steps, including those for the motions at ECF Nos. 46 and 50. (The court does not have the chambers copies but may ask for a set if it cannot get the original set from San Jose.) After the parties complete the discovery, the court suggests that the defendants file a one-page notice that references the original motions and sets them for a hearing on the ordinary schedule or any stipulated schedule. The parties also may vacate the 12/22/2016 hearing and set it for a future date. The court's aim is to get an update and to keep a date calendared (either now or in the future) to avoid losing track of the case. (Beeler, Laurel) (Filed on 11/11/2016)
